As I said in the post below, the stupid fat butt guy who has to be at the counter, at my work, always try to find excuses and health leaves not to go to work.

So, yesterday we all had to go to the counter and I had a hassle with very rude lawyers. Damn it!!

I dont like people in general. I choose people. So, can you imagine how bad it is for me having to interact with this kind of “creatures” (rude people….)

I was going through Ponzi´s Blog last night and I like this video where she and her husband, Chris, review the iPhone.

As I pretty much depend on technology (because my husband is in New Zealand and I am in Brasil) and also because I love love love technology – gadgets in general. Anything that can make life easier.

Some ads are so creative, they are almost “art”. Like this one here:

This is soooo cute!

Mind you, this gorgeous white tiger tiger can swim!

As the website says about the tiger:

“Right shows a large white Bengal tiger called Odin who lives at the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Zoo in Vallejo near San Francisco. An excellent swimmer that happily dives into the pool when a lump of meat is thrown in. He defies the rule that most cats do not like getting wet. 3 more pics after the jump.”

I wish I didnt have to work today… :(

Instead, I wish I could be snuggling with my darling blue blue eyed husband in our bed.

The stupid internet is falling down all the time! What the hell is happening!???  Like yesterday, my evening, it was so terrible! All I wanted was to stay here resting and relaxing with Cam online with me…. Instead, I had so much hassle. We had hassle because of my broadband.

I tried all the wires and everything, and reseting the router and the modem, and restarting the computer….

To make things worse, there is a fat stupid big butt guy that, besides not doing almost anything, his only task is to be at the counter. What happens is that occasionally (quite often) this big butt person calls work very early and leaves a message with the cleaning lady saying he cant go to work because he has a fever. Well, nobody has as much fever as does (course we all know its not true…). The things is, this fat person just try not to go to work anytime he has a chance. And it is not fair.

I am telling this because yesterday that fat guy called work and told the cleaning lady he had a fever…….. blah blah blah…..

We girls had to go to the counter.

If we didnt have work enough.

Anyway, there is a lot of irritating tings at the place I work (like probably 90% of the work places) and sometimes it maes me very sick and tired.

What a day……. hope it goes fast.

What I am going to do is look at the nice posts with our pictures together and try to concentrate on these very nice things.

I will imagine Cam and I together in New Zealand doing the things we love doing together.

My husband, to think about you, about us, is the only thing that can make me feel better.

I love you, my blue blue eyed husband.

On Easter Sunday, this year (2008), I and my beloved husband decided to go on a little adventure. We went for a day to Rangitoto Island.

We got the ferry at central Auckland in the morning. Here, some good info (from “Four seasons in Auckland” website): “To get to Rangitoto, there are a couple of ways – some places do kayaking tours, or you could charter a boat to go across, or you could do what I did (probably the most popular and easiest way) – catch the Fullers Ferry across. It leaves from the ferry building at Downtown, and costs $20 per person, or you can pay $49 to include a train ride on the Island, to get you up the majority of the big hill. But, if you’re energetic enough, walking is far better, as there are some spectacular views on the path up. There are a couple of things you need to take with you – water, obvious, I know, but it does get incredibly hot on the island very quickly. Also, food – there is nowhere at all to buy anything on the Island, camera (you’ll be pig-sick if you don’t get any photos) and a torch, if you want to explore the lava caves. The walk varies the whole time, which makes it fairly easy, as there are lots of places which allow you to catch your breath! It is well sign posted there, and you get a map when you buy your ferry tickets at the ferry building in Auckland. We did the two main walks – to the lava caves and the summit, which are both well worth it, and to do these we caught the 11am ferry out and the 2pm ferry back, which gave us plenty of time. The lava caves are interesting, and you can crawl in one side and out the other, and the summit gives wonderful views of Auckland and the surrounding areas, and also of the Hauraki Gulf.”

We were staying in a wonderful hotel in Auckland. We had a nice breakfast and went walking to the shore to get the ferry. Arriving there, we climbed to the summit and it must have took us like 3 hours (was it, my love?) [Actually, only a little over 1 hour. You did well my love]. And, if my husband wasnt with me, I couldn’t do that. We bought rins [Rin's? I don't remember them. How come you had rins and I didn't? Oh, wait a minute. Orins? Oranges??] and we had some Brasilian chocolates, and bread and oranges. It was so worth going to the summit because the view is amazing (and also the feeling of mission accomplished). On the way back, our legs were so sore. We took a different and easier way back [But, I remember it seemed to take forever in that heat. We walked a long way] We had to wait like 30 min for the ferry and there was an incredible big line. Looked like lots of people were in the mood for some exercise! ;)

But we finally got back to our hotel, had a very nice shower and went to eat absolutely delicious kebabs for dinner!!

Here, pictures of that very nice day!

Sasquatch does exist!


Hey Sweety! These Rins are really nice.

North Island Trip
Posted by Ana Lucia at 6:13 am in Ana's Musings...

I was just thinking…. we have amazing pictures of our South Island Trip. But we would have to scan all of them to the PC. Maybe we could do that one of those days….

Anyway, I love our photos so much, and besides I need something to cheer me up in this lonely Sunday. So….
